We are nerds.
Sep 22nd, 2004 at 1:02pm
 
I just wanted to make sure you guys realize that we are all hopeless, chronically ill, deranged nerds.  A lot of us spend a couple of hours every day talking to people we've never seen about weapons we'll probably never need to use, discussing advanced techniques for primitive weapons thousands of years old.  I don't know why they haven't locked us all up in an assylum by now.  We waste hundreds of hours of our lives for nothing. 

But it IS fun. Grin

From your fellow deranged lunatic, solobo

That's called a job.
  But we are nerds.  It's true.  We just happen to be large, healthy, fit, normal, adjusted nerds, who have other interests.  I, for example, am an avid punk rock fan.

And there are lots of us. Safety in numbers.   Wink
Can't say I'm with you on the punk rock, though.  I'm more of a classical rock kinda guy.

Yeah, I'm in to all kinds of music.  In fact, I'm listening to Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young at the moment.  Punk rock is just more edgy.  There is a great venue in Southampton, so... I have a "mohawk" haircut, with long spikes dyed red.

I took a survey of everybody in my chess club, everybody in my dungeons and dragons group, and all the guys I go to star trek conventions with, and they all assure me that I'm definitely not a geek!

Yeah, metal too... Metallica older albums are some of my favourites.  And even Iron Maiden, some really old school metal - not like this modern new-fangled "Nu Metal"...
  I figure that you aren't a nerd if you do lots of exercise and you can kill someone.

Nerds, or hands-on history geeks we may full and well be, but remember, no matter what anyone else says, we are nerds and hands on history geeks with sharp and pointy, or very lethal ranged weaponry and we have the numbers. And I'm here with you; me and my two swords, two atlatls, bows, boomerangs and kylies

We aren't nerds, because anyone who calls us nerds would get a stone or arrow in the throat.  Just like Harald Hardraada (I have always wondered about that name - it's like they just tried to get as many As in there as possible.)  Unlike real nerds who do not have this ability.
